The Company’s overall costs to acquire inventory for the same or similar products have generally decreased historically as the Company has been able to leverage its continued growth. Additionally, the Company’s inventory costs have decreased in recent years as a result of the Company’s execution of merchandise strategies and realization of supply chain efficiencies. As a result of utilizing LIFO, the Company recorded a reduction to cost of sales of $29,554 and $16,040 for Fiscal 2010 and Fiscal 2009, respectively. The Company recorded an increase to cost of sales of $12,555 for Fiscal 2008 primarily due to commodity inflation experienced in Fiscal 2008.</font></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"><br /></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 18pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="FONT-STYLE: italic; DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Product Cores</font></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"><br /></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 18pt; DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">The remaining inventories are comprised of product cores, the non-consumable portion of certain parts and batteries, which are valued under the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. Product cores are included as part of the Company’s merchandise costs and are either passed on to the customer or returned to the vendor. Because product cores are not subject to frequent cost changes like the Company’s other merchandise inventory, there is no material difference when applying either the LIFO or FIFO valuation method.</font></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt;

At the end of Fiscal 2008, the Company reviewed its inventory productivity and changed its inventory management approach for slow moving inventory. As a result, the Company increased its reserve for excess and obsolete inventories by $34,084, and a LIFO and warehousing cost impact of $3,400. With this change in inventory management approach, the Company has been more effectively managing its slow moving inventory and intends to continue utilizing vendor return privileges when necessary. During Fiscal 2009, the Company utilized substantially all of the reserve established in Fiscal 2008 for its change in approach for slow moving inventory.</font></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; DISPLAY: block"><br /></div><div style="TEXT-INDENT: 18pt;
